【解析】

試題分析：

【1】考查名詞。根據(jù)下文He found that it came from the river可知，他想知道的是水的來源。故填source,意為來源，起源。

【2】考查定語從句連接詞。本句為非限制性定語從句。橫線處所需要的連接詞要代指上文出現(xiàn)的river,滿足這一條件的是 which.句意為：他發(fā)現(xiàn)水來自于河流，而河流卻被來自倫敦的臟水所污染了。

【3】考查動(dòng)詞。通過下文so it could not be used可知泵無法使用。那么，只有把把手給卸下來才能達(dá)到這個(gè)效果。故選用單詞：remove，意為去除，拿走。

【4】考查動(dòng)詞短語。根據(jù)前文John Snow知道霍亂是由水引起的，故他要求不許喝水，那么，疾病的爆發(fā)自然會(huì)減慢下來。故填down，構(gòu)成短語：slow down，意為減慢，減緩。

【5】考查固定搭配。本句考查固定搭配：in addition，意為：除此之外。句意為：除此之外，他還在倫敦的另外一個(gè)地方發(fā)現(xiàn)了另兩起死亡案例。

【6】考查動(dòng)詞。根據(jù)所給中文可知所填詞為die，再根據(jù)上下文的時(shí)態(tài)，可知需要用died。句意為：在喝水之后死于霍亂。

【7】考查名詞。根據(jù)所給中文可知填evidence。句意為：有了這個(gè)新的證據(jù)，John Snow最終很確定地宣稱被污染的水里攜帶了疾病。

【8】考查動(dòng)詞。根據(jù)下文John Snow suggested that all water supplies be examined可知他建議水供應(yīng)要檢查，而上文也說到正是水污染導(dǎo)致了疾病。結(jié)合這兩點(diǎn)可知，John Snow這樣做是為了防止這一切再次發(fā)生，故填prevent，構(gòu)成短語：prevent …from doing sth. 意為：阻止某人做某事。

【9】考查動(dòng)詞。根據(jù)所給中文可知填deal，再根據(jù)介詞之后出現(xiàn)動(dòng)詞用ving形式，可知需要填dealing。

【10】考查動(dòng)詞。根據(jù)對整篇文章的理解可知，這篇文章主要講的是John Snow知道了霍亂的形成以及找到了治療的方法，故可以理解為：霍亂王被擊敗了。根據(jù)句意，填defeated，表示被擊敗。
